So you know how we’re all reading the EDAs on that crappy pdf torrent / archive that’s been going around for over a decade (that’s when I first got mine)?
I, simply, cannot read poorly formatted books. I absolutely cannot.
So I’ve been creating new ePubs of the books for use in eReaders. I’m having a blast doing it.
If anyone wants them, or really any of the out of print DW books from that torrent, let me know, and I’ll put that book at the front of my queue. I’d love to help the fandom out with my ADHD super power to enjoy tedious monotony, as long as it relates to my hyperfocus.
See also my Listening Order post lol.
EDIT: linked it here since the post with the link isn’t being reblogged as much.
EDIT 2: If you'd like to help, or just hang out, I made a Discord for the project.
DW eBook Preservation Society
EDIT 3+:
EDAs updated: 24/74
VNAs updated: 1/84?

THIS IS NOT A DRILL!
omg, this is a wonderful gift to any fan of animation, cartooning, design or mid-century!
[Edit: fair warning, definitely a few gross racial caricatures in this book, about the same level as the ones in the animated films of this period ): ]

VOCALOID MAIKA, Bruno and Clara out of print, for now only affecting phisical.
So, recently it was discovered this.
All of them are ONLY digital now. For how long... who knows.
Maika is still on VOCALOID.com so she is more or less "safe", but Bruno and Clara are ONLY in votro's website.
If you want them probably you should think about buying them in the following months.

Yesterday at work, I was wearing my Out of Print (tm) Redwall shirt and the person I was checking out complimented it :). They said they’d “never met someone who’d seen that show or read those books” and I told them Redwall is like my favorite thing. Shoutout to Sophia, it was exciting to meet you :)

Last “hey I bought a thing” post for a while, promise. This book has been on my hunt list for a while, paperback routinely goes for $50+ online, I snagged this one for $30+shipping because it’s not in pristine condition. The spine is broken in and there’s some underlining/notes in the margins, which I actually kind of love. If only I could read this person’s handwriting…
I need to finish my current reads, and this looks like a pretty dense text, so it’ll probably be a while before I get to it, but I’m v excited.

Mugshot Monday - "Banned Books" heat changing coffee mug by Out of Print with Ethiopia Single Origin Light Roast by Peace Coffee
Happy Presidents' Day for those who celebrate. I have the day off so I slept in and might chill with a good book and a cup of coffee in my classic Banned Books coffee mug from Out of Print.
It's a heat changing mug with the titles of banned books redacted. The titles appear when you pour a cup of delicious hot coffee.
Some examples are To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, 1984 by George Orwell, A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess, and Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury.
When I was in school, it felt like the act of banning books was from "back in the old days". Literary censorship was a thing of the past, right?
Well, some states run by MAGA Republicans are bringing back book banning in unique and disturbing ways.
Florida governor Ron DeSantis has been championing this effort with his "Stop Woke Act".
It's a confusing and intentionally vague bit of legislation that "prohibits educational institutions and businesses from teaching students and employees anything that would cause anyone to 'feel guilt, anguish or any form of psychological distress' due to their race, color, sex or national origin."
One consequence is that certain books that fit the act's description of "woke" are not allowed in schools. Teachers aren't sure which books will get them disciplined, so they've been instructed to take ALL books out of the classroom.
That's really messed up.
The names of books that are banned is starting to be documented, including a list of 176 books banned in Duval County, Florida.
A few of the titles from that list are Dim Sum for Everyone! by Grace Lin, Brother Eagle, Sister Sky, by Chief Seattle and Susan Jeffers, and Black Frontiers: A History of African American Heroes in the Old West, by Lillian Schlissel.
Do you sense the vibe of what is being banned here? It's non-white cultures. Other banned topics are sexual orientation and gender identity.
Lawsuits are being filed against the bill, so here's hoping this all gets shut down sooner than later.
I tried to envision how big a new Out of Print mug would need to be to include ALL the titles of banned books in Florida. Damn. That's no joke.
